Description:
This GNOME utility helps to manage time according to Pomodoro Technique.
It intends to improve productivity and focus by taking short breaks.


NOTE: This is a package rename review due to upstream project name change: gnome-shell-extension-pomodoro --> gnome-pomodoro

You can see the diff versus the old package here:

Comment 1 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2021-08-27 15:30:32 UTC
Package Review
==============

This is a package rename review.

The spec looks good. A few queries below:

Legend:
[x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated
[ ] = Manual review needed


Issues:
=======
- Development (unversioned) .so files in -devel subpackage, if present.
  Note: Unversioned so-files directly in %_libdir.
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/#_devel_packages

^
gnome-pomodoro: /usr/lib64/gnome-pomodoro/plugins/libactions.so
gnome-pomodoro: /usr/lib64/gnome-pomodoro/plugins/libdark-theme.so
gnome-pomodoro: /usr/lib64/gnome-pomodoro/plugins/libgnome.so
gnome-pomodoro: /usr/lib64/gnome-pomodoro/plugins/libsounds.so

^ These are private plugins and in a private directory under %{_libdir}, so they're OK.

gnome-pomodoro: /usr/lib64/libgnome-pomodoro.so

/usr/lib64/libgnome-pomodoro.so
/usr/lib64/libgnome-pomodoro.so.0
/usr/lib64/libgnome-pomodoro.so.0.0.0

^ I expect this shared library is also not meant as system library either. These files could be moved to the %{_libdir}/gnome-pomodoro directory too, but I'll leave that decision up to you. The unversioned file/symlink can also be removed, since it isn't (shouldn't be?) required by the app to run. 

If it is meant to be used as a system library, it'll have to go into a -devel package, of course.


- The guidelines suggest that the obsoletes should use a hard-coded epoch:version-release:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#renaming-or-replacing-existing-packages says:

"
Provides: oldpackagename = $provEVR
Obsoletes: oldpackagename < $obsEVR

$provEVR refers to an (Epoch-)Version-Release tuple the original unchanged package would have had if it had been version or release bumped. You usually use macros here because the provides EVR should continue to go up as the renamed package advances in version and release.

$obsEVR is an (Epoch-)Version-Release tuple arranged so that there is a clean upgrade path but without gratuitously polluting the version space upwards. You usually do not use macros for this as you're simply trying to advance beyond the last known release under the old name.
"

Not a blocker, also up to you.


- Does dbus-common need to be added as Requires since it owns the dbus system directories?
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_the_directory_is_also_owned_by_a_package_implementing_required_functionality_of_your_package

Thanks for the review!

Spec URL: https://fedorapeople.org/~mbooth/reviews/gnome-pomodoro.spec
SRPM URL: https://fedorapeople.org/~mbooth/reviews/gnome-pomodoro-0.19.2-0.3.fc36.src.rpm

New scratch build: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=75045865

Latest changes:

* I removed the unversioned .so symlink, this is not meant to be a devel package.
* Made the obsoletes version a bit more strict -- although I still left the release part using the macro since released versions of Fedora may still receive updates using the old package name and I don't want that to break upgrade paths.
* On Fedora, systemd requires dbus-common so I would estimate the chances of dbus-common not being present on a user workstation as *extremely* small ;-) however I made the the requirement explicit
